What grows here

Corato

15 protected denominations overlap in this municipality.

Within the agricultural hinterland of Bari's metropolitan area, Corato's limestone soils foster some of Puglia's most prestigious viticulture. This terroir fuels the Castel del Monte Bombino Nero DOCG, a rare rosé wine born across a strict ten-municipality zone. It is one of 15 protected denominations overlapping here, reflecting a microclimate ideal for sturdy grapes and robust olives. Today, Corato hosts 5 verified local producers dedicated to these historical crops, with 2 of them opening their gates to cellar doors and tasting rooms for travelers seeking to experience this authentic Pugliese node firsthand.
